Title: WTF? is this for real
Post by: LETMEINPLEASE on 11/03/2016, 04:46 PM

I mean really? Is that really for fucking real? Who in their right mind would sell that for that?

It was probably supposed to be $595.  You can cancel the sale on eBay if you entered the wrong buy it now price.  Let's see if it gets relisted.

It was never sold, the seller cancelled it.

It did sell (it says "Sold for:US $5.95" and is listed under sold listings and not just completed listings), but I have zero doubt that the seller will refuse to follow through and will relist.

Just like the other thread, the seller has fucked up and has earned neutral or negative feedback if the buyer wishes to leave it.

That's what the mobile site says.

It says sold right on the picture. Why would the mobile site say something different?

Hey quick. Start to use this sold listing as "the new market value" to resellers.


Clearly it's what people are willing to pay do it must dictate the value. As resellers like to point out.

there is a positive feedback in the sellers profile for the $5.95 sale.

That confirms it. Deals can still be had even if the chance is a snowball in hell.

Wow, what a fucking idiot. Whats funny is he sells shitty sports ps2 games for more than he sold that for.

Id say the take away is at least its nice to see that a collector got it according to the feedback. However it was like 3-4 days after that sale, 2 new list Bonk CD's came up on ebay both for over $1k so it would not surprise me if a gouger scooped it up just to flip it.

This changed nothing, sadly. It's like winning the lottery....it will never happen to you.

So, who cares. The profiteering continues.

Move along. Nothing to see here.

Flawless logic. I can think of no counter.
